Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Cost Segregation: Accelerate Depreciation & Unlock Tax Savings for Rental Property Investors
Q: What should a investor do first if they're interested?
Get a cost segregation estimate, consult their CPA, and consider a one-on-one onboarding session to assess fit and timing for their specific property timeline.
Cost Segregation: Accelerate Depreciation & Unlock Tax Savings for Rental Property Investors
Q: Who benefits most from cost segregation, including smaller properties?
Both large commercial properties and smaller rental properties can benefit, with DIY approaches expanding access to single-family rentals and modest cost bases, making it viable for more investors.
Cost Segregation: Accelerate Depreciation & Unlock Tax Savings for Rental Property Investors
Q: What is cost segregation at a high level?
It identifies non-structural components of a property that can be depreciated faster (5- or 15-year buckets) to replace the standard 27.5- or 39-year schedules, boosting early deductions and cash flow.
2026 Infinite Banking: How to Build Cash Value with Whole Life (90/10 vs 50/50) + Policy Loans
Q: What is the going rate on a policy loan today?
Policy loans typically range around 4-6%, which is generally lower than HELOCs or other secured lending options, making it a cost-effective liquidity source for investors.
2026 Mortgage Rate Update: What’s Happening with Rates, Treasuries, DSCR Loans, and Investor Lending (with Jen Hernandez)
Q: Are there any changes to lending that people should know to qualify for Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac, or related updates to the lending box?
There have been solid advances in DSCR and other alternative lending where income documentation can be lighter, though DSCR may carry slight penalties or higher upfront costs; overall, compare DSCR against conventional by analyzing down payment, credits, reserves, and potential tax implications.
